Atiku, El-Rufai, Tambuwal, Pantami Join ADC Stakeholders’ Meeting In Abuja [Photos]

Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar on Thursday attended a meeting of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition leaders in Abuja.

Among those present are former Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai, ex-minister of digital economy Isa Pantami, ADC chairman David Mark, and former Sokoto governor Aminu Tambuwal.

In a post shared on X,, Atiku described the gathering as a stand against “oligarchs who promote poverty and insecurity in the land”.

The meeting comes after opposition figures and ADC leaders agreed in July to adopt the ADC as a joint platform ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The coalition also brings together several other notable politicians, including Uche Secondus, former PDP national chairman; Peter Obi, Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate; Rotimi Amaechi, ex-transportation minister; and Odigie Oyegun, former APC chairman.

  • LOL, gathering round the ADC campfire, are we? Stand against oligarchs, says Atiku, right before they all gather to be *the* new oligarchs of the opposition! 😂 Makes sense. Welcome to the party, guys – hope the snacks are worth the while. Next theyll be trading stories about how *tough* it is running for office! #ADC #PoliticalReality #OligarchWatch #NextGoal始皇帝

  • Atiku and his crew are really hitting the road to fight oligarchs, huh? Meanwhile, theyre all just chilling together, probably swapping stories about whos richer. Politics is a circus, and theyre all the clowns in it! 😂 #ADC #OligarchWatch
